Coloured bath resurfacing at your home in Westleton

We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, with no new plumbing or tiling. A full suite is normally done in one to two days. We work on avocado, pampas and pink baths, whole bathroom suites and coloured basins, and the jobs we see most are a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom and faded or patchy colour.

All our work is covered by a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Suffolk. Care for the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

How we price coloured bath resurfacing

Prices start from £350. Prices are worked out job by job, from your pictures. The main factors are:

  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • The type of damage
  • Whether we combine several jobs

Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Getting a price from photos

Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To make it quick:

  • The material, if you know it
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit

Most clients in Westleton get their price from pictures. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.

Repair or replace in Westleton?

Swapping a coloured suite for a white one involves a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Refinishing it in white turns it white with everything left in place. Prices start from £350. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

Westleton questions

Can you price it without visiting?

Normally, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.

Are you accredited?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

Can you do the toilet too?

Talk to us first. The inside of a bowl is always wet and scrubbed, so we will tell you what will last.

Does someone need to be in?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.

How much does coloured bath resurfacing cost in Westleton?

Resurfacing from £350. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You’ll get a fixed figure before booking.

Is the work guaranteed?

All our work carries a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

Can pets and children be at home?

Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

Are there extra charges for Westleton?

There is no separate call-out charge. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.

What we cannot put right

We’d rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so these are the limits:

  • The inside of a toilet bowl, unless we’ve agreed it will last
  • Items cracked right through
  • Fittings and taps (these are masked, not recoloured)

If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think.

Materials we repair

  • Whole bathroom suites
  • Coloured basins
  • Coloured shower trays
  • Avocado, pampas and pink baths

What we’re called out for in Westleton

Coloured suites were fitted in huge numbers in the 1970s and 80s, and plenty are still in good condition. The problem is normally the colour, not the bath.

Most people get in touch when they notice one of these:

  • A dated coloured suite you’d like in white
  • A suite that does not match a new bathroom
  • Faded or patchy colour
  • Selling or letting a home with an old suite

What your quote should include

  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
  • Who turns up on the day
  • If travel is included in the price
  • How to care for the finish

Our hiring checklist

The process

We work cleanly and quietly, so you can stay at home while we are there. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes one to two days for a full suite. Before we leave, we explain how soon it can be used and how to look after it.

  1. The room is protected and ventilated.
  2. Each item is cleaned, degreased and any chips repaired.
  3. The surface is prepared and primed.
  4. We spray on the new finish in white or your chosen colour.
  5. Each item is left to cure, typically ready the following day.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Make sure the room can be ventilated
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit

Ask for a price

Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them to us with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price. Quotes are free and no obligation.

Related advice

DIY kit or professional repair?

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.
